Abstract excerpt
Anopheles funestus Giles is a major malaria vector in Africa, but little is known about the genetic structure of natural populations. In this study, microsatellite markers were used to investigate the genetic structure of A. funestus populations from Kenya. Two populations from western Kenya 80 km apart and two from coastal Kenya 50 km apart were collected and examined for allelic variation at five trinucleotide...
